Various memories of Bella's past from childhood to adolescence, as if continuing to spin when entering the house. Only 22 years old, not married, but Bella has tasted the bitter sweetness of life, even since she was a child. Coming from a family that has a complicated relationship, being the child of a second wife is certainly not an easy matter to live. Various kinds of ill-treatment and insults have become daily food. Not to mention the family from his Papa's side was also not fully willing to accept. Although it has been explained that all of this is purely Baskoro's fault, still everyone views Selena as bad.
It is still clear in Bella's memory, when she was only 6 years old. The grandmother of her Papa family came to the house with Natalie in a state of anger and insulted her mother. Even to thrust a suitcase filled with money claps that do not know how much. Maybe the whole-life Selena and Bella are also the first time to see that much money.
Bella and Selena are forced away from Baskoro's life by promising him that much money.
Selena obviously refused. Tampa has to be paid though, she can actually go with Bella from Baskoro's life. But repeatedly Baskoro asked them not to leave.
"Mom, I'll make sure they make up for the hurt they've inflicted on us." Bella shrieked in a trembling voice, then entered the house full of memories.
"Non Bella, how are you.?" A housekeeper came over to Bella. The middle-aged woman has worked there for 15 years, she knows all about the lives of Selena and Bella. He was also considered to be family.
"Good Bik. Aunt's healthy.?" Ask Bella friendly. He did not hesitate to kiss the hand of his house assistant.
"healthy Non. That sir's waiting upstairs." He glanced at the second floor. Baskoro arrived 15 minutes earlier than Bella.
"Non Bella wants to drink what.?"
Bella nodded slowly.
"No Bik, Bella will take it herself if thirsty. Bella go upstairs first." Then he rushed up the stairs.
...*****...
In a room, someone's painting decorated the corner of the room since 5 years ago. The 60x80 cm painting depicts a sweet smile from a simple woman.
But not as simple as its extraordinary nature. A nature full of patience, sincerity, kindness and always apologizing to anyone who has ever hurt him.
A woman whose eyes look very simple, but very special in the heart of a man who loves her. Even after so many years of absence, the woman was still engraved in his heart. All the good memories with him are still stored neatly in memory.
"Selena, if I could turn back time." Lirih Baskoro with eyes that have condensed.
3 Years of loving Selena and treating her well, it doesn't feel worth all the sacrifices and what Selena's been through.
In the doorway, Bella rubbed the corner of her eyes that had been wet since. He knew his father had only been able to accept and love his mother for the last few years before he breathed his last. As a child, Bella was certainly disappointed with her Papa's attitude during her late mother's lifetime.
Bella is disappointed because her Papa cannot see the sincerity and love of the Mother who had secretly loved Baskoro for a long time. But her father was blindfolded and only in love with Natalie.
Now that everything has passed, Bella tries to throw away her disappointment and appreciate her Papa as a parent, like her mother's message before she died.
"Mom is happy in heaven." Bella said as she walked closer.
Baskoro hurriedly neutralized his flogging feelings. The man turned around, then threw a smile at his daughter.
"Papa just misses your mother." Baskoro is honest. Bella turned her face away because her eyes hurt again. His mother was indeed very kind, to the point of leaving a deep impression in the hearts of everyone close to her.
...****...
Baskoro and Bella have moved into the study. There is also a lawyer and Baskoro confidant who only arrived a few minutes ago.
"Bella, Papa's getting old." Baskoro. Bella's heart suddenly beat fast. Just a few seconds ago he had a bad thought, now he heard a frightening speech in his mouth.
"Papa needs someone who can replace Papa and keep all of Papa's assets. You can't turn it down anymore because you're the only son of Papa who deserves it." Seriously speaking. Not understanding, Bella was even more confused. He tried to digest his father's words, but still did not understand.
"What does Papa mean.? Isn't there Julia. Sister Julia is more entitled to replace Papa." Refute Bella. After all, he is also not interested in owning all the assets of the Papa's wealth that may not run out of 7 derivatives.
Baskoro shook his head without a word. He puts a white envelope in Bella's hand.
Not wanting to be curious for longer, Bella hurriedly opened the envelope and took the paper twin inside.
Bella reads a string of letters on the paper in her hand. Bella's face, which was initially confused, now turned into shock and immediately understood the meaning of her Papa's words.
"How can it.?" Bella asked spontaneously. He looked at Papa with a glare. Suddenly pity and worry about the feelings of the Papa who may be very disappointed with this reality.
The results of the report were written on June 8, meaning that only 1 week ago this lie was exposed.
Baskoro later recounted an incident he heard some time ago when he accidentally eavesdropped on Natalie's conversation with Julia over the phone. Natalie expresses her concern that one day the secret about Julia is revealed. That Julia is not Baskoro's flesh blood, but flesh blood from her affair.
Hearing the story of the Papa, Bella feels she has a greater chance to destroy Natalie and Julia.
Not willing to waste the opportunity, Bella finally told me all the bad treatment she had from Julia and Natalie all along. Bella also complained that she was actually kicked out by Julia and threatened not to appear in front of her Papa again.
Baskoro immediately held onto his chest that was instantly congested. She felt useless and failed to become a parent because she could not protect her daughter.
"Why didn't you say it a long time ago.?" Tanya Baskoro. He clasped his daughter's hand.
"Bella just doesn't want to ruin Papa's happiness and Papa's little family." Answer Bella.
Baskoro took a deep breath. Bella is too good as her late mother.
"You are also Papa's family, Papa's son. You shouldn't have to endure all this alone." Baskoro pulls Bella in a cuddle. The middle-aged man sobbed, he felt pain when he imagined Bella being treated so badly by Natalie and Julia.
"I'm sorry, Papa, forgive Papa." Baskoro's voice choked. Bella finally came to cry and vented all the sadness that she had been alone.
...*****...
"Just leave 10% each for Natalie and Julia, if they don't accept it, we take their lies to the law.!" Baskoro insists on his lawyer and confidant.
Baskoro ended up only dividing 20 percent of his property into Natalie and Julia.
Bella has also agreed to accept 80 of her possessions and all assets that no one else knows about.
If all Bella's share is in total, Julia and Natalie only get 5% of all Baskoro's wealth. Consider it 5 % for Natalie's wages for 29 years to be Baskoro's wife.
Bella smiled with satisfaction. Two greedy women are sure to bite their fingers because they only get a crumb. Though all this time was too confident to get all the treasures Baskoro.
